Cleansing the Doors of Perception
Huston Smith

1 "The spiritual crisis pervading all spheres of Western industrial society can be remedied only by a change in our world view. We shall have to shift from the materialistic, dualistic belief that people and their environment are separate, toward a new consciousness of an all-encompassing reality which embraces the experiencing ego, a reality in which people feel their oneness with animate nature and all of creation." Albert Hofmann

2 "The durability of the physical universe derives from the fact that its contents reside in God's mind as well as ours."

3 "For as long as I can remember I have believed in God, and I have experienced his presence both within the world and when the world was transcendentally eclipsed."

4 "Dig deep enough and we see that what present themselves to us as free-standing, independent objects actually float on webs of relationships. Networking is the way the world works."

5 "Surely holiness has something to do with the whole."

6 "Life really is a miracle, every moment of it, and..the only appropriate way to respond to the gift that we have been given is to be mindful of that gift at every moment and to be caring toward everyone we meet."
